Here is another hint: Would you rather have a stoned driver or a drunk driver.

they’re functionally the same and you’re a retard

The only retard is you actually trying to physiologically break down a stoned drivers effects vs an intoxicated one and believing they are the same.

God 2026 has created a bunch of dumbasses.

Man you hire shite people

You know how many high functioning folks in perfectly normal jobs smoke weed?

Take the number in your head a double it

Some people are just trashy and dont have the common decency to not smoke it around others or announce it to the world. There are soooo many discrete users you'd never suspect. In many ways, similar to a functional alcoholic when it gets bad enough. However, most folks in these positions just use it to take the edge off, just like all the fricking SSRIs they get people hooked on.

For some reason potheads are the only ones who will insist that they are more functional when high.

Alcoholics don't do that. I've only known a few meth heads, but none of them that I know do it. People who take psychedelics MIGHT do it if we're talking about certain, specific, activities like something creative, but they don't claim they're better drivers when they're high.

Not even cocaine cowboys.

It's just the potheads. And they 'effing INSIST it's true. And get all defensive about it, like the guy who responded above.

Either weed causes physiological and psychological changes or it doesn't.

If it does, you don't need to be driving a car under the influence of it, and no, it doesn't make you a "better driver."

And if it doesn't, there's no reason to do it in the first place.

You paranoid?

My point had nothing to do with smoking weed, it was about a majority of unproductive employees we let go thought they were A+, highly productive employees. Many probably smoked weed, but most were just lazy, weed or no weed.
